Hi anyone out there that has Tried Overclocking this Setup?
Care to share your configurations?

Hello guy ! Happy seeing that you're using almost the same rig as me  For my case i have a 5600k and i have overclocked it at a mid range as i don't want to set high vcores in order to save my cpu and for energy saving because very high frequencies are noticeable through benchmarks only and not through 24/7 use... so i set my parameters as follow: 40x100 @ 1,30v / ddr3 at xmp1 8-8-8-24 2t @ 1,50v / llc at auto / turbocore off and integrated graphics off / cnq on / uncore-memory northbridge at 1800 mhz... when just received my rig i tried several settings till 42x100 @ 1,35v-1375v but during stress my rig was hanging or rebooting... and the gain of 200 mhz more isn't worth for me....

Finally a reply to my post hehe!

Well here is my complete setup


G1.sniper a88x
Amd A10-5800k
Gskills  -  2133    2x4    ram
Corsair  450
Cooler master T4   = cpu cooler

Well so far i have not touched the Voltages since I have no idea what to change  LOL 

What idid was


change multiplier of CPU to  40  - i find this is the most stable
Change memory settings to XMP profile 1
GPU - 800   to 1000

-and from time to time it hangs 

I have no plans on using another Video card since I am waiting for Kaveri

Have you tried overclocking with just the onboard GPU?

Sorry Solidsnak3 to hear that your rig hangs from time to time  I think it could be an eventual problem of your psu... is it at least 80+ bronze ? As if you haven't desactivated the turbocore function it bumps your default vcore from 1,35v to 1,45v (+ 0,1v when activated) and your psu might have problem to give enough energy on the +12v rail...As piledriver/zambezi cores of those Apus are very hungry...try to disable turbocore and set manually the cpu vcore at +0,00v... Concerning my rig i have a Gigabyte HD 7970 Ghz Edition for the video coming from my previous am3+ rig so you should understand that i haven't tried (and will never) the integrated graphics of my cpu (onboard graphics) even though it is far away superior than the last intel onboard graphics... And indeed i have purchased this sniper and my 5600k for the upcoming KAVERI

Hey man Thanks for the Reply looks like we are the only one who has this Configuration  Love the Built in Audio By the way,  Well to solve my issue  Ill Just wait for   KAVERI  which was my original intention to begin with hahaha!   Really Exited already on getting it  and will be saving up   I just dont know if on the 15th of January it will also already be available in Manila Philippines

Xsiing my fingers though    If not   Ill just get my self a  7900 Video card  if i have the budget

Just hope Kaveri will keep its promises !! As concerns your rig even with the built in graphics upon Kaveri you will sooner or late buy a decent graphics card if you want to play last games on high resolutions and details... A good compromise are the R9 280X/270X or for a lower budget the R7 260X  But i think you will be obliged to change your psu for a 80+ bronze 500w or more...If so choose a good brand (Fortron, Seasonic, Antec, Silverpower, Silverstone, Be quiet, Superflower).
